Stronger with Crimson Modifier

Myriad shields composed of hexagonal crystals, arranged as tightly as a honeycomb, encircled and guarded the continent.

At the very center of the continent stood a towering white Holy Hall that seemed to pierce the clouds.

It was a majestic and magnificent structure, seeming to connect heaven and earth as it exuded a sacred and solemn aura.

He was all too familiar with this aura.

It was the aura of the White King.

After his breakthrough to True God, Hu Qi could finally form a proper assessment. Drawing on the memories of Xi Zhongsi, he now had some judgment regarding the strength of the White King—the one who had killed him.

He should be at the Dao Seed Level.

He was likely exploring the Bottomless Realm at the moment.

If that weren’t the case,

he couldn’t have dispatched Xi Zhongsi back then.

The path the White King walked was likely one of harvesting faith.

And the world before him was not the King’s Transformation Realm.

It was merely a dwelling for his followers.

"So be it! Since I’ve stumbled upon it, I might as well collect some interest first!"

The corners of Hu Qi’s mouth lifted, revealing a row of ghastly white teeth.

Before the words had even faded, he abruptly raised a hand, his fingers curled like a talon, and clawed at the air before him.

CRACK!

The honeycomb-like crystal shields shattered.

Before the believers within could even react,

the entire world seemed to become a fragile sheet of white paper.

It was drained of all color.

The sky and the land began to twist.

Countless believers screamed and wailed.

Then they were crushed flat, squeezed into a single mass.

Finally, with a loud BOOM, the mass exploded, becoming a brilliant firework that illuminated a patch of the pitch-black Deep Dark Zone.

The light was brilliant yet brief.

Crimson text floated before his eyes.

After finishing, Hu Qi’s body froze for a moment. He seemed to have sensed something amiss.

His brows furrowed slightly, a grave glint in his eyes.

’It seems I can’t continue like this.’

He muttered to himself, his eyes suddenly lighting up with a faint glow as he looked up into the void above.

Within his sight, in the Sea of Sumeru that had previously been empty save for the pinpoints of soul-light, a black fog now appeared. It swirled and coiled, threaded with wisps of blood-red light.

The black fog and blood-red light intertwined, exuding a heart-pounding, ominous aura.

Even with his current power, a single glance was enough to make a shiver of dread run through Hu Qi.

This was nothing else but a form of fate.

It was known as Cause and Effect Karmic Force.

This situation had occurred because he had slaughtered too many worlds and living beings.

From the Spirit Realm’s perspective, the worlds themselves are constituent parts of the Spirit Realm.

If one slaughters too many,

it will disrupt the balance of the Spirit Realm, thereby generating a negative Karmic Force.

This power seemed to originate from the Spirit Realm itself; even the Twisted Light could not shield against it.

If he continued this wanton slaughter, Hu Qi had a premonition that some great horror would inevitably descend.

This inevitably brought the Three-Eyed Primordial Serpent to mind.

As a being known as the ’Snake of Destruction’, a fully grown Three-Eyed Primordial Serpent had destroyed far more worlds than he had.

And the extinction of its clan was perhaps not solely due to that White King.

The backlash from the Cause and Effect Karmic Force, triggered by devouring too much life, might have also been one of the reasons for their fall and extinction.

This Cause and Effect Karmic Force was extremely subtle. If not for his Primordial Eye and the Divine Power Inference Celestial Destiny Core, he would never have detected it.

Once it was allowed to fester, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Based on his observations,

a True God’s Divinity could wear away this Karmic Force, but it required a very long time.

’It seems I can’t keep harvesting Modification Points like this, at least not in the short term.’

Thinking of this, Hu Qi’s gaze fell upon the panel.

However, the panel still did not display a method to eliminate the Karmic Force.

’But on second thought, that makes sense.’

’After all, the Karmic Force hasn’t truly descended upon me yet, so of course the panel can’t modify it.’

He didn’t dwell on it for too long; his gaze shifted to the very bottom of the panel.
